When Registering for the site Please answer why you would like to join this site under the "Activation Justification:"

This is an anti-psychotropic drug group. Do you feel like you have just woken up from a fog in which your mind crackles, you can't remember a thing, your thinking is totally disorganized and you have alienated and angered nearly everyone you love thanks to your insane behavior? Or have you begun drinking alcohol uncontrollably even though you never drank much at all before? Or have you woken up to realize that you have actually done something that absolutely horrifies you - something you would only do in your worst imaginable nightmare?

Or maybe a loved one has stopped loving you, took no interest in sex or relationships and has become a lethargic shadow of themselves. Or they have suddenly, and completely out of character, taken their own life or someone else's life.

It most likely is a SSRI Medication!

I am Ann Blake-Tracy, the originator and admin for these group forums.

I have specialized in antidepressants for 25 years and head the International Coalition for Drug Awareness (www.drugawareness.org), the oldest group organization in existence which has been warning and educating about antidepressants since the mid 90's and which you are also invited to join.

We have also built a database of documented cases involving antidepressants - most of those criminal in nature as those are reported - and it can be found along with almost every school shooting incident there has been at www.ssristories.NET

I am faced with various options:
1. Cover all the expenses on my own.
2. Receive contributions from forum members.
3. Place Google Ads on the site to generate ad revenue.
4. Charge for forum membership.
5. Shut down the forum.

I'd rather not do option 1, 4, or 5.

I'd appreciate it if you all would contribute to the costs of keeping it running, ad free.

You can contribute any amount via this page: http://help.drugawareness.org/support/ http://www.ldsfreedomforum.com/support/

Or I can place Google Ads throughout the forum, in hopes of generating revenue through those ads. If I don't start receiving a sufficient amount of contributions soon, and on a regular basis (to cover the associated server/hosting/domain costs to keep the forum running) I'll take that as a sign that I need to start putting Google Ads on the site... or figure something else out.

Thanks.

UPDATE: Thank you to everyone who contributed to support the forum in 2010... it covered those expenses for the 2nd half of 2010.

For now, I've decided (as you've probably seen) to try out advertisements as another method of supporting the site... If users can tolerate the ads, and if the ads do their job, it will probably turn out to be a good option (and won't cost you anything - though you can still contribute via the link at the bottom).
